11 01 13* Degreasing waste containing hazardous substances
The problem of hazardous degreasing waste is one of the most urgent in the modern world. This is due to the fact that the degreasing process uses chemicals that may contain dangerous components. After use, these substances become waste that requires special handling and storage. Improper handling of such waste can lead to serious consequences for the environment and human health.
Degreasing is a process used in various industries to remove greasy contaminants from surfaces. This process often uses chemicals that become waste after use. Degreasing waste may contain hazardous substances such as heavy metals, organic compounds and other toxic components. Due to the high level of toxicity and the possibility of environmental pollution, this waste requires special attention during collection, storage and processing.
A pity for the environment and people
Dangerous degreasing wastes pose a significant threat to the environment. Their improper storage or disposal can lead to soil, water and air pollution. Among the main environmental risks it is worth noting:
- soil pollution with heavy metals;
- entry of toxic substances into water sources;
- release of dangerous gases into the atmosphere.
Soil contamination can have long-term effects, as heavy metals can remain in the soil for many years, making it difficult to use it for agriculture or other purposes. The ingress of toxic substances into water sources leads to the deterioration of the quality of drinking water and negatively affects the aquatic ecosystem. The release of dangerous gases into the atmosphere causes air pollution, which affects the health of people and animals.
Pity for people
Dangerous degreasing waste also poses a significant threat to human health. Exposure to toxic substances can cause various diseases, including:
- respiratory diseases;
- allergic reactions;
- oncological diseases.
Contact with hazardous waste or inhalation of its vapors can cause acute and chronic diseases of the respiratory system. Allergic reactions may occur due to skin contact or inhalation of dust. Some toxic substances contained in degreasing waste can have carcinogenic properties, increasing the risk of developing cancer.
Respiratory diseases caused by exposure to hazardous degreasing waste can include bronchitis, asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). These diseases can be caused by inhaling toxic fumes or dust containing hazardous substances. People who work in direct contact with such waste are particularly vulnerable to the development of these diseases.
Allergic reactions can be caused by skin contact or inhalation of allergenic substances contained in degreasing waste. Symptoms of allergic reactions may include itching, rash, swelling and other manifestations. Severe cases can lead to anaphylactic shock, which requires immediate medical attention.
Oncological diseases are one of the most serious risks associated with exposure to hazardous degreasing waste. Some chemicals used in the degreasing process may have carcinogenic properties. Prolonged exposure to the body can increase the risk of developing cancer of various organs, including the lungs, skin, liver, and others.
In general, the impact of hazardous degreasing waste on human health can be diverse and serious. Therefore, it is important to ensure proper management of these wastes in order to minimize risks to the health of workers and the public.
Ways to reduce harm
There are several methods of reducing the harm from hazardous degreasing waste. The main ones include ecological waste management and the introduction of advanced recycling technologies. Methods of environmental management of hazardous degreasing waste containing hazardous substances include:
- collection and sorting of waste at the place of generation;
- transportation of hazardous degreasing waste containing hazardous substances to specialized centers;
- use of safe storage (D15) and recycling methods.
Environmental management of hazardous degreasing waste containing hazardous substances involves the development and implementation of effective waste management methods that allow reducing their negative impact on the environment. The operations of collecting, sorting, crushing and processing hazardous degreasing waste containing hazardous substances help to reduce their quantity and prepare them for safe recycling.
